Rik Chatterjee

Rik is a PhD student at Colorado State University exploring the tangled edge of embedded systems and cybersecurity. His research focuses into real-world vulnerabilities in automotive and industrial controllers, from reverse-engineering to network protocol level vulnerabilities. He’s previously shared his work at DEF CON and NDSS. When he’s not pulling apart PCBs, you’ll find him elbow-deep in his vegetable garden, proving that both firmware and tomatoes need rooting.
